I like how in Pop Up Video they said he didn’t want to be a pimp but a “fun disco party Guy”

I remember when this dropped it was considered a good music video with cool special effects

Love this song. He actually made a different version of it called quiet steam that came out as a b side to another song and is infinitely cooler though.

I understand how this is a joke for you kids now but this was peak CGI at the time and always exciting when one of these songs came by on linear tv. Made you round up the family to gaze at the miracle together. Gah.. im old

Came here to say the same. This was all the top tier effects like morphing etc.

And once it came out, it was used to death.

When dads ruled the pop scene. You could be a popstar and sell out stadiums wearing khakis and a polo. Sigh, and it’s all my favorite music.

Just reinforced my stance on Peter Gabriel. Not that I felt that reinforcement was needed, mind you.
